"DME library data for Installation Series Speakers" provides processor settings for Yamaha's "Installation Series Loudspeakers" in the form of library data for DME series Speaker Processor Components. These libary data may also be downloaded to the SP2060 speaker processor.

Current Version Info

V1.6

The following changes have been made.

Limiter threshold levels were revised, allowing increased headroom on speaker systems to enable higher output power. After internal testing, limiter threshold levels were raised 3dB.

*Threshold levels have not been changed on any of the subwoofer models, and on Midpower model (IF2112M and IF2115M) HF units driven in bi-amp mode.

Procedure of Use

File usage

Uncompress the entire SpeakerProcessor folder and copy to the following folders, depending on your operating system.

Windows XP/2000:
\\Program Files\YAMAHA\OPT Tools\DME Designer\Library

(If DME Designer is installed in a folder other than Program Files, copy it to \YAMAHA\OPT Tools\DME Designer\Library under the installation folder.)

Windows Vista:
Public\Public Documents\YAMAHA\DME Designer\Library

• "Speaker Processor Components" can be used in DME Designer V1.2 and later.
• Use these files as a "Speaker Processor Component."
• Use the 1Way library data with 1 Way components, and the 2 Way library data with 2 Way components.

The data cannot be loaded by other components.

File names

File names are based on the following:
"model name"_"drive mode"_"with or without subwoofer" or "for floor monitor".cel
  bi … bi-amped mode
  pa   passive mode*
  sub … used with a subwoofer
  moni … settings for floor monitor

*Although the use of DSP processing is not mandatory for passive mode, the following settings are recommended for optimal performance.

Limiter settings

Limiter settings (enabled by default) have been added to each library file.
The settings assume maximum output gain of DME (excluding DME24N's analog output) is +24dBu and 26dB voltage gain of Amplifier (based on Yamaha PC series amplifier used at -6dB attenuation) for start point.
If the set up differs from this, please check the level diagram and change the threshold parameters before using limiter.
E.g. If +18dBu output cards such as MY4-DA or MY8-DA96 are used, raise the threshold by 6dB.
E.g. If amplifiers with 30dB voltage gain are used, turn the threshold 4dB down.

Note: The use of a limiter does not guarantee the protection of your speakers! The use of recommended limiters should be considered only the first step toward protecting your system.

System Requirements

DME Designer Ver 1.21 or later.
